lyrics

Intro Chorus
Welcome to the land of the living

Welcome to the land of the living

Welcome to the land of forgiving

Verse
Hope has come, beyond compare
Come to know, that life can share,
more than its share, of, distasteful woes

A door has been, unlocked with care,
A wasteland, once laid bare,
Is now garden rich, where beauty grows.

Come and see (come and see)
What you can be (you can be)
When you hold your head up high above the shame.

Taste and see (taste and see)
What life can be (life can be)
When the weight of guilt no longer stakes its claim.
Chorus:
Welcome to the land of the living
Right here where you belong
Join in it’s brand new song.

Welcome to the land of forgiving
It's like you've been reborn
Your soul, free from scorn.
Welcome to the land of the living

Welcome to the land of forgiving


Verse 2:
Think you've seen it all before
But this time, you can't ignore
For every man's been given, a measure of faith.
(to believe)

You have worth, beyond compare
The son of God, has paid your fair
Enter now, and accept this fate.
(It’s Time To Receive)

Come and see (come and see)
What you can be (you can be)
When you hold your head up high above the shame.

Taste and see (Taste and see)
What life can be (life can be)
When the weight of guilt no longer stakes its claim.

Chorus:
Welcome to the land of the living
Right here where you belong
Join in Freedom’s song.

Welcome to the land of forgiving
It's like you've been reborn
Your soul, free from scorn.

Welcome to the land of the living

Welcome to the land of forgiven


Come and see
What you can be

Taste and see
What life can be
In The Land of The Living.
